Midlands Maelstrom 2 list ideas

[jaqenhgar]

Well practice game against Will went well. Akuma was awesome if a bit lucky, and the hydra's were again amazing. Will's corvettes did clear a lot of my frigates but I had enough spread out that some survived. Think I missed a Chimera though. Have come up with an alternative list that isn't reliant on frigates and so will hopefully counter massed corvettes that we might see with the Calibre (L) rule. Not sure about the big guy in this list but I'd like to try him and it gives me an excuse to buy one:

--------------------------------------
Shooty scourge - 1250pts
Scourge - 5 launch assets

SR15 Flag battlegroup (260pts)
1 x Daemon - 260pts - S
   + Fleet Master (20pts, 4AV)

SR10 Line battlegroup (230pts)
2 x Sphinx - 230pts - M

SR6 Line battlegroup (172pts)
1 x Hydra - 140pts - M
1 x Gargoyle - 32pts - L

SR10 Line battlegroup (230pts)
2 x Sphinx - 230pts - M

SR7 Pathfinder battlegroup (169pts)
2 x Gargoyle - 64pts - L
1 x Chimera - 105pts - M

This second list here may be better as it keeps the Akuma, and the second hydra, losing 3 sphinx's to pay for them. Nothing is as scary as 10 scourge bombers on your tail!
